The Born Winner (Jack and Katherine) novel Chapter 252

The old man dismissed everyone and he sat quietly still fuming from anger.

The veins on the back of his right hand protruded and throbbed. He was suppressing his rage! He was the highest authority in black hell but yet he had no control over Champion. Because he knew that the black hell couldn’t keep him in unless he was willing to stay.

More importantly, he required Champion to suppress the black hell. Only he could ensure that the ten prison areas co-existed in an equilibrium. But what this man did had broken the equilibrium.

He took a deep breath and picked up his phone to make a call.

When the call went through, he yelled the words, “How dare you!”

Bang! After he ended the call, he pondered deep in his thoughts.

The issue of the black hell Champion crippling four Alpha Wolves spread like wildfire across the entire black hell. The entire black hell was in shock. All the convicts were confused by what Champion did. All of them knew that the ten Alpha Wolves had their differences and conflicts but all these were well within the acceptable confines.

Even if two Alpha Wolves fought in a deathmatch, it was just between two Prison Areas. But now the Alpha Wolf of Prison Area no. 1 had crippled four Alpha Wolves! This was the first time in the history of black hell!

Everyone didn’t know what Champion was thinking but some guessed that this had to do with Jack’s attempt to get out. Under such speculations, this made Jack’s identity become a mystery. It was like Jack’s name was now engraved in every convict’s heart.

At the same time, the remaining Alpha Wolves went into action without delay. This caused the black hell where time was meaningless to become even more oppressed and tensed.

“He… is he really helping me?” Jack frowned tightly as he laid on the stone bed. It was already night time but the polar day made it difficult for them to sleep.

Jack didn’t bother that he had become the main topic to all the convicts in black hell. All his doubts were now on that person at Prison Area no. 1.

Help? This was a very small possibility. It looked like he had cleared the path for Jack to give him the right to fight the last match. But…

Jack’s frown eased into a bitter laugh, “Perhaps these were the arrogant actions of Champion. He cleared the four Alpha Wolves so that he could quickly fight me, and then… kill me?”

Jack rubbed his nose and laughed bitterly, “Things made more sense by thinking this way.”

On saying this, he took out the two capsules of pain killer. These were the only things he had that could help him. His body hurt immensely. His broken ribs had not recovered and he had multiple cracked bones which hurt like hell preventing him from falling asleep.

If it wasn’t for what Champion did, the two painkillers from Boombear were insufficient to help him for the remaining fights. But now, these painkillers will give him a chance to take on Champion!

If he could win over Champion, he… would be able to leave!

With a deep breath, Jack kept the two pain killers in his pocket and his eyes had an odd look, “Amber... wait for me. I’ll be there to lift your veil!”

…

The next day.

Jack tossed and turned for the entire night and finally slowly opened his eyes.

When he saw Jack taking out the painkillers, Boombear reminded, “Mr. Hughes, one will do.”

Jack smiled and took both the painkillers, “It’s a deathmatch so will I be worried about overdosing?”

Boombear was startled, and said respectfully, “Mr. Hughes, safety first.”

“Does he have a weakness?” Jack asked.

Each time before a deathmatch, Boombear would tell Jack about the opponent’s weakness. But Boombear didn’t this time.
